Vice Presidents of the 1960s
There were four Vice Presidents during the 1960s.
The 34th President of the United States was Dwight D. Eisenhower from January 20, 1953 to January 20, 1961. His Vice President was Richard Nixon.
The 35th President of the United States was John F. Kennedy from January 20, 1961 to November 22, 1963. His Vice President was Lyndon B. Johnson.
The 36th President of the United States was Lyndon B. Johnson from November 22, 1963 to January 20, 1969. His Vice President was Hubert Humphrey (1965-1969).
The 37th President of the United States was Richard Nixon from January 20, 1969 to August 9, 1974. His Vice President was Spiro Agnew (1969-1973)
In the decade of the 1960s, the four men who served as vice president were: Richard M. Nixon (1953-61), Lyndon B. Johnson (1961-63), Hubert H. Humphrey (1965-69) and Spiro T. Agnew (1969-73).
There were four Vice Presidents of the United States during the 1960s:
Walter Mondale (1984) and Al Gore (2000).
Four U. S. Presidents had no Vice President:John TylerMillard FillmoreAndrew JohnsonChester A. Arthur
Gerald Ford (1976), Al Gore (2000)
The total number of former vice presidents (not counting incumbent vice presidents) who ran for president since 1960 is five: Lyndon Johnson in 1964, Richard Nixon in 1968 and 1972, Gerald Ford in 1976, Walter Mondale in 1984, and George H. W. Bush in 1992. Johnson won, and Nixon won both times. Ford and Mondale lost. Bush won when he was the incumbent vice president but lost when he was the incumbent president.Including both incumbents and former Vice Presidents, those who ran for President and lost since 1960 are...1960 - Richard Nixon (won in '68 & '72)1968 - Hubert Humphrey1976 - Gerald Ford (served as President from '74 to '77)1984 - Walter Mondale1992 - George H. W. Bush (won in '88)2000 - Al GoreNixon, Bush and Gore each had been Vice President for eight years. Humphrey and Mondale each had been Vice President for four years. Ford had been Vice President for about eight months.
The reason that there have been four more U. S. Vice Presidents than there have been U. S. Presidents is due to the eleven Presidents who did not have just one Vice President. Four Presidents, Tyler, Fillmore, A. Johnson and Arthur, had no Vice President (a 4-VP shortage). Six Presidents, Madison, Lincoln, Grant, Cleveland, McKinley and Nixon, each had two Vice Presidents (a 6-VP surplus). One President, Franklin Roosevelt, had three Vice Presidents (a 2-VP surplus). Six extra plus two extra minus four short equals four extra.
Presidents, and Vice Presidents of the 1960'sThere were four Presidents, and Vice Presidents during the 1960's.The 34th President of the United States was Dwight D. Eisenhower from January 20, 1953 to January 20, 1961. His Vice President was Richard Nixon. The 35th President of the United States was John F. Kennedy from January 20, 1961 to November 22, 1963.

Walter Mondale in 1984 and Al Gore in 2000. Also, Richard Nixon in 1960, but he was later elected in 1968.
Nine presidents had their terms finished by the vice-president, Eight of these died in office-( four from assassination and four from natural cause ) and one resigned before his term was over.
No, there are no presidents or vice presidents from Colorado.
The presidents either died or resigned, and their vice presidents took office, or the vice presidents were elected on their own.
The last time the total number of Presidents and Vice Presidents was the same was near the end of the 19th century, when McKinley was President and Hobart was Vice President. Then after Vice President Hobart died McKinley needed a new running mate. When he was reelected, Theodore Roosevelt was his new Vice President, and the number of V.P.'s then exceeded the number of Presidents by one. The difference of one remained until Franklin Roosevelt was President. He changed Vice Presidents twice (he had a total of three). So at that point, when Roosevelt started his 4th term, the total of vice presidents was three more than the total of presidents. The difference of three remained until Gerald Ford was appointed to replace Vice President Agnew, who resigned in 1973. The difference then became four, where it remains to this day (43 presidents and 47 vice presidents).
Incumbent Vice Presidents who lost their presidential elections were...John C. Breckinridge (1860)Richard M. Nixon (1960)Hubert H. Humphrey (1968)Al Gore (2000)(Although Nixon lost the 1960 election, he ran again and won eight years later.... His opponent was the incumbent Vice President.)
